<p>No word on discipline for Angels’ Hamilton </p>
<p>TEMPE, Ariz. — Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton was in New York on Thursday to meet with Major League Baseball officials about an unspecified disciplinary issue.</p>
<p>The 33-year-old Hamilton has a history of drug addiction and alcohol abuse, leading to suspensions that cost him more than three years while in the minors. </p>
<p>Hamilton, the 2010 AL MVP, hasn’t reported to spring training in Arizona after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder earlier this month.</p><p><a href="http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2015-02-27/sports-briefly" target="_blank">read more</a></p>http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2015-02-27/sports-briefly#commentsSportsAL MVPArizonaBaseballChicago BullsChicago BullsG.P.HamiltonJosh HamiltonJosh HamiltonLauren HillLOS ANGELESLos Angeles Angels of AnaheimLubbock Avalanche-JournalMajorMajor League BaseballNew YorkoutfielderPerson AttributesPerson CareerPerson LocationTEMPEUSDFri, 27 Feb 2015 06:36:36 +0000Staff210692 at http://lubbockonline.comMen's Top 25 college basketball roundup: http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2015-02-08/mens-top-25-college-basketball-roundup

<p>STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Oklahoma State looks to replace the offensive output of running back Tyreek Hill, who was dismissed from the team after being charged with domestic abuse.</p>
<p>The junior was kicked off the football and track teams Friday after being arrested and charged with punching and choking his pregnant girlfriend. The previous Saturday, Hill’s 92-yard punt return for a touchdown in regulation helped rally the Cowboys past Oklahoma in overtime.</p><p><a href="http://lubbockonline.com/filed-online/2014-12-16/oklahoma-st-deals-dismissal-rb-hill" target="_blank">read more</a></p>http://lubbockonline.com/filed-online/2014-12-16/oklahoma-st-deals-dismissal-rb-hill#commentsFiled onlineArizonacoachCollege footballLubbock Avalanche-JournalMike GundyOklahomaOklahoma State Cowboys footballOklahoma State UniversityOklahoma State UniversityPerson CareerQuotationrunning backSTILLWATERTEMPETyreek HillWASHINGTONWed, 17 Dec 2014 05:02:38 +0000Staff201754 at http://lubbockonline.comArians: Stanton won't need surgery on injured kneehttp://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-12-13/arians-stanton-wont-need-surgery-injured-knee
<p></p>
<p>TEMPE, Ariz. — The Arizona Cardinals have taken another big injury hit, but it could have been worse.</p>
<p>Coach Bruce Arians said Friday that quarterback Drew Stanton will not require surgery on his injured right knee.</p>
<p>“We feel he definitely has a chance to be back this season,” the coach said. “We just don’t know when.”</p>
<p>Asked if there was any chance Stanton could play in the next game, a crucial NFC West showdown against Seattle on Dec. 21, Arians said, “I wouldn’t put it past him but I would be surprised.”</p><p><a href="http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-12-13/arians-stanton-wont-need-surgery-injured-knee" target="_blank">read more</a></p>http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-12-13/arians-stanton-wont-need-surgery-injured-knee#commentsSportsBOB BAUMArizonaArizona CardinalsBruce AriansCarson PalmercoachDrew StantonDrew StantonEmployment RelationEntertainmentEntertainmentFootballGridiron footballLogan ThomasNational Football LeagueNFC WestPerson CareerquarterbackQuotationRyan LindleySAN DIEGOSeattleSt. LouisTEMPESat, 13 Dec 2014 06:28:49 +0000BOB BAUM201303 at http://lubbockonline.comNo. 8 Irish 55-31 lose 55-31 to No. 11 ASUhttp://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-11-09/no-8-irish-55-31-lose-55-31-no-11-asu

<p>TEMPE, Ariz. — Everett Golson’s latest rash of turnovers spoiled Notre Dame’s comeback. The Irish’s chances at the College Football Playoff are all but done, too.</p>
<p>Golson threw for 446 yards and a pair of touchdowns, but had five turnovers in No. 8 Notre Dame’s 55-31 loss to No. 11 Arizona State on Saturday.</p>
<p>“It’s all on me, really,” said Golson, who was sacked seven times. “You play with fire as much as I did today you are going to get burned eventually.”</p><p><a href="http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-11-09/no-8-irish-55-31-lose-55-31-no-11-asu" target="_blank">read more</a></p>http://lubbockonline.com/sports/2014-11-09/no-8-irish-55-31-lose-55-31-no-11-asu#commentsSportsJohn MarshallAmerican footballAmir CarlisleArizonaCFPcoachCollege footballCollege Football PlayoffEverett GolsonLloyd CarringtonMan Made DisasterPerson CareerpremierQuotationTaylor KellyTEMPEthe SunTodd GrahamSun, 09 Nov 2014 06:55:30 +0000John Marshall196932 at http://lubbockonline.comAcross the nationhttp://lubbockonline.com/national-news/2014-09-20/across-nation
<p><strong>PLACERVILLE, Calif.</strong></p>
<p>A massive Northern California wildfire is burning so explosively because of the prolonged drought that firefighters are finding normal amounts of retardant aren’t stopping the flames. And so they are dropping record-breaking amounts — more than 203,000 gallons in one day alone.</p>
<p>By Friday, state firefighters and the U.S. Forest Service together had bombarded the conflagration with more than a half-million gallons of the red slurry, said Lynne Tolmachoff, a state fire spokeswoman.</p><p><a href="http://lubbockonline.com/national-news/2014-09-20/across-nation" target="_blank">read more</a></p>http://lubbockonline.com/national-news/2014-09-20/across-nation#commentsNational NewsArizonaBusinessBusinessCaliforniaEcological successionFireFirefighterHospitalityHospitalityHuman InterestHuman InterestLawLawLubbock Avalanche-JournalLynne TolmachoffMan Made DisasterNatural DisasterNorthern CaliforniaOccupational safety and healthPerson CareerPLACERVILLEPoliticsPoliticsQuotationSecurityspokeswomanTEMPEUnited StatesWildfireSat, 20 Sep 2014 05:13:56 +0000Staff190349 at http://lubbockonline.comAcross the nationhttp://lubbockonline.com/national-news/2014-09-04/across-nation
<p><strong>RENO, Nev.</strong></p>
<p>A demonstration about the science of tornadoes went awry Wednesday at a Reno museum, leading to a chemical explosion that injured 13 people, most of them children, authorities said.</p>
<p>Reno police Officer Tim Broadway said seven children and two adults were transported to the hospital for treatment of acid burns on their hands, arms and faces after the 4:10 p.m. blast at the Terry Lee Wells Discovery Museum in downtown Reno.</p>
<p>Reno Fire Chief Mike Hernandez described the injuries as minor to moderate.</p>

<p>CAMP TONTOZONA, Ariz. — Chip Sarafin watched the others before him break down the barriers, athletes like Jason Collins and Michael Sam who let the world know they were gay.</p>

<p>TEMPE, Ariz. — Arizona State senior offensive lineman Edward Sarafin has told a local magazine he is gay, making him the first active Division I football player to come out.</p>
<p>Sarafin told Phoenix-based Compete, a magazine for gay sports, that he revealed his sexual orientation to his teammates nonchalantly last spring.</p>
<p>The walk-on lineman, who goes by the nickname Chip, follows the precedent set by St. Louis Rams linebacker Michael Sam. </p>

<p>TEMPE, Ariz. — The massive men ran from one station to the next, barely taking a second to catch their breath between rounds of sit-ups, push-ups and throwing weighted balls against a wall.</p>
<p>They moved on to the weights next, easily whipping bars with multiple plates up to their shoulders.</p>
<p>The end of the session turned into a testosterone show, students watching from a perch above and shouts filling the room as the players took turns bending steel bars while squat lifting the equivalent of small cars.</p>
